[MidatlanticMaineiac]

Martin4132,
I would take 2 off your hands if you still have them.

 

[martin4132]

7 reserved ,ferman, lonke, lordura, midatlanticmaineiac and i'll bring the extra's

 

[lordura]

... and its confirmed! The pallet will be shipped and ready for pickup on Friday, May 28th!
I'll be arriving at the terminal at 7pm on Friday to get the paperwork taken care of. Everyone should be there by 7:15-7:30 for pick up.

I still can't edit the first post so I'll send everyone a PM later tonight just to be sure we are all aware.

If you can not make it for the pickup, please start making plans now for someone to hold your grain for you.

See everyone on Friday!

 

[ferman]

Fantastic. Thanks Jeff. I will be there and most likely will be picking up vincemash's grains - since we split all of our sacks together.

Will there still be rice hulls available for purchase? I am looking to buy a 5-6 pounds if possible.

 

[lordura]

Ferman,
I'm going to check with Seth to see if he'll be in the area for the pickup or if I'll be bringing the hulls. Either way I'm sure they will be available.

 

[sethga]

I am closing on my house that day in Maple Shade... coming over to the pickup will be a much needed break from moving and excuse to go get dinner too I'll be there with the hulls.

Ferman 5-6 pounds not a problem, just kick me like 50 cents a pound that is what they cost.

We still have a lot, if I had to guess we can let go with about 20 pounds so I'll bring that and first come, first serve

 

[ferman]

Oh yes. The joys of moving.

Glad to hear you will be at the p/u sethga. Would it be possible to separate out the 6 lbs for me in a bag? I am going to be on a pretty tight schedule and since I am picking up vincemash's grain, do not have to do any splitting or weighing that night.

I will try, but I must tell you I can't make any promises... If you don't mind kitchen trash bags (a new one of course) I think I can help you out.

I haven't even seen this brick of rice hulls in person yet, my friend picked them up at the last buy and stores them -- but apparently it is a pain in the ass to break them off and measure so I was planning on showing up and going with the self service route for folks that wanted them

 

[ferman]

I don't mind trash bags at all. If you can do it ahead of time, that is great. If not, I am sure we can make quick work of it Friday night. I will bring some baggies just in case.

 

[vanwolfhausen]

Just PM with address and exact time of pickup? My PM box was full so wasn't getting any PMs

 

[lordura]

I'm going to PM this to everyone later tonight but thought i'd trow it out here first :

Delivery is set for 7:15pm on Friday, May 28th

Location:
New England Motor Freight
1618 Union Ave
Pennsauken, NJ

Congrats on the house! Where in Maple Shade are you moving?

 

[sethga]

I have the rice hulls, if you want them, bring some sort of vessel to put them in.. bag, bucket, whatever. I will probably not have bags, I'll forget. Except for the guy that wanted 6 pounds, I have you covered.

I'll be there until about 8PM so if you are late you are beat!

Round the corner from the wawa off mainstreat basically

 

[lordura]

See everyone tomorrow!

I picked up a little to much C40 malt from the last group buy so I'll have about 8lbs of malt bagged by the pound for anyone who wants some... free of course. First come first serve!

I can use it. I may be a little late there though

 

[soonami]

I'm excited! I could also use some C40L...

 

[ferman]

I will take it if it is still available.

 

[lordura]

Just checked the weather and it looks like a very small chance of showers later tonight. We should be fine since its only a 13% chance and the sacks are double bagged. I'll see if I can bring something to cover the sacks in case it does rain. We'll just need to get this pallet split up as fast as we can just to be safe.

See everyone in a few hours!

 

[soonami]

Grain buy was a tremendous success. Thanks Jeff for organizing this, hope to catch up with you guys again soon

 

[lordura]

No problem at all! Hope to see you at the next group buy.

 

[idratherbeinmexico]

Agreed. Thanks Jeff. We really appreciate your effort.

 

[lordura]

The effort is well worth it when you consider the savings! Plus I got a few treats last night like some hops, bucket and a BEER! Have to wait a couple more weeks to try the beer but that to should be worth the wait!

Thanks to everyone who made it out and got the pallet cleared off so quickly!

 

[ferman]

Jeff - I also wanted to say thanks for organizing. We are all lucky to be able to do these group buys and you make it a seamless process. Enjoy the Ahtanum hops.

It was nice to meet some of you and see such a fine group of Home Brewers.

Lou - thanks for the carboys.

Seth - thanks for the rice hulls.

 

[vanwolfhausen]

Yeah, Thank you Jeff for everything!! This has really helped me out in a HUGE way. Maybe next time I can chill and chat longer instead of being in a rush.

 

[lordura]

No problem guys! It was cool meeting everyone. If there wasn't so much gpoing on with splitting up the pallet, I could have talked with everyone more.

We should plan a big meet this summer.... chill back with some homebrews and bbq.

 

[aluminumpark]

thanks for bringing this all together jeff!

Longke- I think your PM box might be full, pm me and we'll set up a time I can get that grain from you
